Description
Statistical Programming in R is a textbook designed to explain the theory, syntax, and scripting of this powerful language that helps build robust statistical models, analyse huge data with ease, and visualize and draw meaningful inferences. This book is designed for the first course on the subject taught for the students of undergraduate engineering in computer science and computer applications. It would also be useful for people who are beginners in data science and statistical analysis and those who want to begin with a hands-on approach to using R.
The book begins with the basics, followed by chapters on factors, data frames, and lists. A discussion on conditionals and control flow, loops, and data structures follows. Applications to data sets are discussed in the succeeding chapters on the apply family and R charts and graphics. The last chapter of the book is dedicated to a detailed discussion of probability and statistical examples from various domains.
Interspersed with various programming examples throughout, the book provides multiple-choice questions, programming exercises, and simple concept application exercises at the end of relevant chapters.
